Steps to make Lee's Creamy Potato Soup:

In a 6 quartl stock pot, sauté celery and onion in butter and olive oil until just tender. 5-7 minutes. Saute with a little salt and black pepper to taste. Add minced garlic towards the end..
Add diced potatoes, chicken stock, milk, celery salt, and seasoning salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let cook until potatoes are fork tender. 13-15 minutes Do not bring to a full boil..
When potatoes are fork tender, add half and half. Bring back to a simmer. Then add cornstarch slurry. (1/4 Cup warm water and 1 tablespoon cornstarch well blended, only if needed!!) Bring back to a simmer..
Add cheese a little at a time and allow to fully melt. Use a simple hand held potato masher to get the consistency you want. Note: I do not recommend using a blender to get a smooth soup. It will turn into a glue..
Adjust salt and pepper if needed. Add chopped celery leaves and enjoy. Garnish with bacon bits, sour cream, chives etc..
